Two Island arts groups and two of their executive members have filed their statements of defence in a civil lawsuit involving a teenage girl who was sexually abused. 
The defence documents deny all the allegations made in the suit and allege the girls' parents were negligent in failing to protect their child from the man who abused her.
Aaron Crane was sentenced to six years in prison in January after pleading guilty to sexual interference of a girl who was under 16 at the time.
